Re: RSS feeds

I'd like to hear some feedback on this. I can have any RSS feed we want, and it can be posted by RoboHicks on any of the boards, in which case they could be replied to in the same thread to discuss the article.

Perhaps a feed to post the latest Entertainment news on the S&E board? Or a CNN.com feed for the News board?

That sounds good, but like Soup said, I don't think there should be too much.

RoboHicks is out of control......

No, but seriously, I know when it posts multiple threads on the same topics they usually get locked, but damn, this morning there are 5 at the top of the Pacers board that are pretty much the same topic.

There are usually a few posters that always post articles, especially articles from Indystar, and Pacers.com, so what RoboHicks does in theory might be cool, but actually it's very redundant, and doesn't seem to provide anything other than more threads for you mods to clean up.

Just a suggestion, not trying to knock the idea of you having, or creating it, but it just seems to clutter up the top of the Pacers board more than anything.

Maybe create a separate forum for RoboHicks, so anyone that wants to look at the latest headlines can do just that, and it won't pollute the main board topics with stuff that every time seems to ultimately be deleted, and pushed down the board.
